Please spread the news in your networks!
This conference will highlight accelerated changes imprinted in our planet
within the Anthropocene. We welcomed presentations and posters targeting
forest changes and landscape transformation as a consequence of increasing
pressures of globalization, population growth, resource scarcity and
ecological degradation -the BIG challenges ahead- operational solutions and
state of the art methods are at the centre of the conference
Within the framework of this Conference will focus on key topics to assess
problems but also to find solutions towards a better future of forested
landscapes
Also Call for Forums is still open
